In 1982 I was bow hunting in Idaho. This was just after Claude Dallas killed those 2 game wardens.
The state had bought all the wardens new auto pistols. I don't remember what they were. A game warden came to camp to check ou our licenses. I asked him if I could see his weapon. He popped the mag, emptied the chamber and handed it to me. I was shocked.
Another time I had shot a small buck and had dutifully signed my tag but had negelected to cut the dates out. Game warden was nice about it and allowed my to correct it.
I have not had the horror stories that others have had.
